Bowie State Releases 2021 Football Schedule

BOWIE, Md. – The Bowie State University Department of Athletics has released its 10-game football schedule for the 2021 season. Bowie State’s 2020 season was canceled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Bulldogs concluded the 2019 season with an overall record of 11-1, 7-0 in the CIAA and Bowie State repeated as conference champions.

 
“I’m excited about our 2021 schedule as we start with a very tough non-conference schedule”, said Bowie State Head Football Coach Damon Wilson. “We will have several challenges even before we start conference play. I look forward to opening up against an FCS opponent before we start D2 games. As a staff we have worked extremely hard to put a roster together that we feel will represent the university well. Our schedule will provide the program to compete against three different respected conferences.”
